SPOILER ALERT!

The Best Greatest Showman Songs Based On Scene (Again)
Vogue

Welcome back to the sequel of "that Greatest Showman article" you read last week because you were bored and it popped up on your timeline. If you haven't read the preceding article at hand, my profile is just a click away. The last article covered the top three, but this week I'm adding three more.

4. The Other Side

My personal favorite song off the soundtrack.

First of all, this song takes place in a bar, where P.T. is trying to convince Phillip to take his shot at the circus from his current pretentious lifestyle.

HIS SHOT.

IN A BAR.

I am amazed at the least. The English major in me was stunned at first sight.

The glasses are continuously being thrown around the table, for Phillip to take, such as the offer being thrown his way.

Eventually, Phillip takes this shot, and a partnership is created.

Regardless, Zac Efron and Hugh Jackman singing together is a recipe for success.

5. Rewrite the Stars

Where the epitome of love barriers is addressed, almost deja-vu in relation to P.T. and Charity Barnum.

Their struggles are displayed in the circus ring, calling on the exact problem from society about the two being together - the circus.

They're both trying to hang onto the rope, or their hidden admiration for each other, and Phillip literally helps her go through hoops, such as their relationship would in real life.

Different variations of the two hanging on to each other to try and make it are displayed throughout, another reference to the hardships of a potential relationship.

Did I mention Zendaya did her own stunts during this? Legendary.

6. This Is Me

Empowerment: a definition.

Being in a circus is essentially looked at as a group of outcasts coming together to amaze people at what they can do, and also make them thankful they do not share similarities.

The bearded woman in the show displays she is no longer embarrassed by what she cannot change - a character progression from the beginning of her career, when she could hardly come out from behind the curtain.

The circus crew as a whole finally comes to terms with who they are, and don't care what the world has to say. The group even openly performs in the middle of the chaos surrounding people who relentlessly criticizes them.

Not to mention, Anne doesn't show Phillip any mercy while looking at him during the performance - she isn't what society would want her to be, and doesn't care for the "swells" approval to make her worthy.


Three more scenes before The Greatest Showman comes to a close, but you won't be disappointed.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
